Hey Guys,

How are you doing this week?

4 Things I thought worth sharing with y’all

1. Life full of Wounds.

Since childhood, I’ve been a naughty kid.
Breaking things, Running everywhere, scratched knees & wounds all over the body

When I got into an accident and got a wound on the upper part of the nose, I realized that I have to live with this wound forever.

It looks like a wound when you get your nose broken in a fight :(

I wanted to create videos and share my knowledge through video content.
But I’ve always been nervous and anxious about sharing my face on the internet with that big a*s scar

2. NOBODY CARES

This week I came across one of my followers on Twitter.
He has over 200k subscribers on YouTube and he shares knowledge in Hindi.

Guess what? he has a scar on his face.

That’s when I realized if your work and knowledge sharing method is good, NOBODY REALLY CARES.


Let’s look on the bright side

In Nov 2018, I was backpacking in Ahmedabad - I broke my leg.

I couldn’t really do anything and had to stay home for over a month. I started thinking about what to do and that's when the idea hit me.

I need to figure out doing something REMOTE.

I took up video editing again as I always loved documenting stories. (I started learning video editing in college)

Within a month I got freelancing gigs and people offering jobs (I hardly had 3-5 videos on my YT channel)

This week I closed one of the biggest clients ever. (That too paying in Dollars)

What’s the point of living, with no wounds

(Share this on Twitter)

Take that adventure, do things you love, get scared, miss a heart-beat, love your wounds and live a life that you could look back to and say ā€œMan I was a wild kid back thenā€

CREATE STORIES FOR YOUR GRANDCHILDREN
